Summary:
Pike-Delta-York Local is a small Ohio district with just one middle school: Pike-Delta-York Middle School in Delta, OH, serving grades 5 through 8 with about 361 students, roughly 90 per grade. Because it is the district's only middle school, every grade-level score reported for the school is also the district figure, so the most useful comparisons are the school against the state and against its own results from year to year.
This school stands out as a consistently strong performer. It ranked 202nd of 1,046 Ohio middle schools in 2025‑2026 — the 81st percentile — up from 228th the year before, and it has earned four stars in each of the last three years. More telling: it scored above the state average in all 11 tested subject-and-grade combinations in both years, averaging about 76% proficient versus roughly 59% statewide, an edge of about 17 points. Its sharpest advantage is math, where 8th grade sits 28.7 points above state and 7th grade 24.1 points above. Algebra I proficiency was 100% two years running, though this likely reflects a small accelerated cohort taking the end-of-course exam early rather than the full 8th-grade class — the data does not include test-taker counts.
For parents, the practical picture: the school's weakest relative results are still above state — 5th-grade math (+5.5) and 6th-grade ELA (+7.3), the lowest of the 11 measures at 63.3%. Chronic absenteeism is 10.0%, better than the district's 13.4%, and 46.26% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch. Bottom line: this is a stable, high-performing school with math as its clearest strength.
